Recommended Posts

I am running out of Breakfast ideas. What is everyone eating for breakfast?

What do you usually have?? I'm following Atkins (low carb) so I'm known to eat dinner for breakfast, and breakfast for dinner from time to time. The other day I had (leftover) steak for "breakfast" (it was noon) and had eggs for dinner...

Frequently:

Protein shake

Cottage cheese

Greek or Icelandic yogurt

Very occasionally:

Mcdonalds egg white delight without the muffin

Omelette

Deviled egg

Skinny latte, skinny mocha or skinny london fog

Not terribly creative I'm afraid.

Well this will bore you to death. I'm 4 years out of surgery and 3 yrs in maintenance. Maintenance for me means 'stability'. So to eliminate what your going threw. I eat the same thing every morning..Quaker (the flavored packets) oatmeal, with, all kinds of fruit I love, the fruit does change and flavor packets change, oh and I put ground flax and wheat germ in it to (keeps my pipe work flowing, if ya know what I mean), I figure it cant hurt. And coffee, lots of coffee. BORING!

But I don't have to figure out what my am eating plan is anymore..again, BORING!

This week it is Fage 2% greek yogurt and Wild Harvest blueberry vanilla granola. Last week alternated chocolate Protein Shake with cottage cheese. Fridays I do bacon, egg, and half a piece of toast with jam as a treat.

Hope you get some good ideas. oatmeal with some Protein shake mixed in is a good choice too.

Leftover dinner

A salad with some fish or chicken

Cottage cheese with Tomato and ground pepper

Plain Greek yogurt with a teaspoon of jam

An egg, fried scrambled or poached, sometimes with avocado

Crustless quiche with ham or crab. There are lots of recipes for this kind of thing all over this site.

A Protein shake

Best wishes

I like egg beaters and mix in roasted veggies I've pre-prepped and nuke em. Often will mix in jimmy dean turkey sausage crumbles too.

So easy and delicious.

Sometimes I top with cheese but try to avoid that extra calories while I'm trying to lose

I am almost a year out and I pretty much eat the same thing every day, I eat an egg white omelette with peppers, a little cheese and a piece of bacon or turkey sausage. I am glad I am not the only one that is a creature of habit. I just looking for some new ideas.

On gamergirls blog she has a recipe for egg Peanut Butter cookie pancakes they are very good I thought. :)

I eat scrambled eggs or use my leftover dinner (taco, fajitas or steaks ect) and make a one egg omelet topped cheese and with a dollop of sour cream and salsa.

90% of the time I make a breakfast taco for breakfast. Consisting of a Tortilla, one scrambled egg, shredded cheese, and either sausage or bacon. Other times it is grapenuts Cereal or oatmeal.

Breakfast is either 1% cottage cheese with fruit, plain non fat Greek yogurt with stevia and a piece of fruit, 2 pieces of turkey sausage or bacon with a sunny side up egg or my "treat" once a week is old fashioned oat meal or cream of wheat with cinnamon.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
